Military advancements: Weapons, armor, vehicles, strategies ❌ PASTA ✔️ So Youjo Senki not only did announce season 2, they also gave us a pre-movie OVA. Well played. Objectively, it´s a very light episode with basic story and some poor drawings, which is normal considering they are working on S2. No OP or ED, same OST and limited character expressions also were there. But it was still enjoyable. Like the first dish that comes before the pasta (sorry I had to do it, don´t kill me) Story: 6/10 Art: 5/10 Sound: 7/10Character: 7/10 Enjoyment: 7.5/10 --> 8/10 Overall: 7/10 Should I watch it?: If you have 15 spare minutes, give it a try
Operation Desert Pasta. It was not a choice, it was a necessity. Stationed in the desert to rout their enemy and cut off their supplies, the 203rd battalion is running low on food, water, and spices--- they must conserve what little supplies they have left. Meanwhile, the top brass complains about their agonizingly bland food and recognizes the true need to ship some supplies to the main lines to boost the battalion's morale. There was only one problem with their sentiment, the "supplies" shipped weren't at all what the 203rd battalion needed! There was only Dry Pasta. Tanya and the 203rd battalion recognize there's only oneway to rectify this botched resupply. The 203rd battalion must execute "Operation Desert Pasta" and resupply from their enemies. The result is a lighthearted comic relief episode in the Youjo Senki series! The animation and art are as high quality as the main series. The animation and action were awesome for a short special. Overall, this special was an enjoyable side story since we see the characters being more casual and relaxed than in the main series. There were no high stake missions, but you did get to see a couple of moments of awesome action~ Definitely recommend it if you're a fan of the series!
This is just a nice, short comedic interlude that's not essential viewing...but it is a lot of fun. In short, Tanya and her unit are stationed in the middle of the desert, Water is scarce and their diet is monotonous. So, in a brilliantly stupid way to improve morale and vary their combat rations, the military high command ships in an incalculable quantity of dried pasta. The rest of the story involves the crazy lengths to which Tanya and her mages go to make said pasta tasty. Mayhem ensues. If you like Youjo Senki then this is a nice treat while we all wait for thesecond season. It'll give you a few laughs and it looks really nice too. I can only hope we get a few more of these in the future.
I don't think people understand what actually this OVA meant Basically, want they want to show us (in my perspective of course) is that season two is going to be better at all aspects they worked on You can hear new sound effects for shooting, flying etc. Characters now have new face expressions (like Serebryakov when planning the attack); Improved animation on some aspects like shooting, aiming, explosions and more; THIS is exactly what I wanted, you may not know but, (in my limited knowledge) seems like studio nuts is a recent studio founded in 2017 that had its first anime adaptation be Youjo senki, so after that, they dida FCLC something that I didn't watch, deca dence that I did, and now YS season 2 They are learning throughout the years of experience they have acquired and banged us with this thrilling new OVA showing some improvements I think this is awesome since I really fell in love in this anime's adaptation, I honestly tried reading the manga (I'm not a manga guy anyway) but barely managed to do so, in my POV this extra was a huge success at showing us what season two is going to look like I say all of this based on the fact that I have just re-watched YS season 1 and the movie in the last 2 days, so I really mean the improvements I saw and am commenting about
What do you do when you have pasta but with no flavor? You raid a bunch of supply depots of course. What a rather light hearted side story. You have command sending you pasta but you don't have water what do you do? You get water from raiding their supply depots of course. Then your cooked pasta tastes like flavorless garbage what do you do? You hit dozens of other enemy supply depots to get those supplies. When all said is done the enemy thinks you're some tactical genius hitting bases that are vulnerable but in reality you're being raided for your Italian goods andproducts. If this short did one thing it reminded me how grateful I am to Italy. But uh seriously it's pretty funny and a step back from the main series. I hate to say it but if you're watching this right after the first season or the movie try not to get upset that "its action sucks" well they did name the episode Sebaku no Pasta Daisakusen(Operation Desert Pasta) its your fault for getting your hopes up :/ 7/10
Hungry? How about some pasta. This is an OVA where Tanya is shipped way too many boxes of pasta in the desert and needs to find a way to make it edible for her men. It's entertaining enough and fans of Tanya the Evil will likely find enjoyment in it. I personally found it a little boring but not bad by any means. Everyone is back and has at least a single line. Serebryakov has a moment to shine though I've never particularly cared for her character. The performance for Tanya isn't as good as usual, likely because this is just a 15 minute OVA. Ionly watched it to clear the series off of my Crunchyroll watch list. I wouldn't recommend this to anybody unless they absolutely love the original series or want to get an idea of it without the commitment. Plot: 5/10 Characters: 5/10 Animation: 7/10 Sound/Music: 6/10 Enjoyment: 5/10 Overall: 5.6/10
These imbeciles actually use knives when eating penne al sugo. The Imperial Army always finds new ways to terrify me. MAL insists on having me write a longer review, so I'll express more of my comments, but really this anime is just a joke used to bring back Tanya and show some good animations of the 203rd Magic Batallion flying in the desert. Story is really poor apart from the nice joke about them fighting for a good meal, but we're always glad to hear Tanya's speeches and technically the work is good. They actually know how pasta should be cooked and, as an Italian, I reallyappreciated it. But they use those knives...
Lesson learned: food is humanity's hope. Just a side episode to the main story/anime, one that's rather made more for comedy and enjoyment than deep stuff. The whole episode is centered around pasta and getting the right ingredients to cook it, but from enemy bases, of course. Good food doesn't come for free, right? Story: 5/10. The art is the same as in Youjou Senki, so I'll give it a 6 out of ten. Sound: 8/10 (same opening as the original)Character is another 7/10, because there isn't much going on when it comes to character development as such, and it wasn't meant to either (which is completely understandable). Enjoyment: 6/10. Overall it'd be 6/10, mostly because it's not my cup of tea so I didn't enjoy it that much. Even so, I must say it'd be great for a fun little break after watching the anime, which is drama, battles and strategy-packed. And I'd also recommend it for someone who likes comedy anime in general, even tho the genre doesn't appear in the ONA's description (regrettably so).
Its back!!!. For those who loved Youjo Senki you will absolutely love this. You can jump straight back into the action again. After two long years of waiting we are rewarded a side story that could easily fit in with the main story. The plot of the side story allows us to once again see the ingenuity of Tanya as she once again carves her way through the warzone. the sound track is back with the same opening theme which never seem out of place, however be warned this ova does take a slightly more comedic approach then the original series but it is still enjoyableto watch non the less. Would definitely recommend to those who enjoyed the original series.
Youjo Senki: Sabaku no Pasta Daisakusen (2021) Not bad for a filler episode to signal the oncoming second season of this show which I am looking forward to. The story is a pretty simple one about the food-related issues on morale and how it is solved. A pretty realistic storyline in such a fantastical world. The art is very much in keeping as you normally would expect. I do hope the next season is a bit more polished otherwise not much will have changed. The sound is still amazing with the sound of the explosions and magic and the whoosh as they fly around. The characters arestill the same and I love the fear they have when they make a mistake and yet although somewhat the bad guys here they are brilliant still. From start to finish it is a good ride and sets the scene for going forwards. Quite a lot happens during this. 8/10.
A cute, rather Silly OVA for the not so silly Youjo Senki. It's almost wholesome fluff - the gang is deployed to the desert and has nothing to eat but pasta without anything - every single day. So what do they do to escape this hell of boring food? Raid every single enemy base that has a huge storage of supplies so they can eat well... As far as I am informed this plays after S1 but before the movie. I was told that the "Desert Arc" is way longer in the novels, but they decided to cut it so the movie could happen. No idea if that'sright or not because I probably won't read the novel. And their desert Uniforms look great! If you liked isekai quartett and Youjo Senki you will like this as well. 8/10 for me.
the moment I saw youjo senki's new special, I instantly watched it without reading the title or what it was about. ENJOYMENT is 10/10 anything else is 8. How was I able to enjoy it you say? I didn't know it was about pasta and I was literally preparing my own pasta while watching it with my mom. I felt really thankful because as they were struggling to find ingredients for pasta, the pasta was easily within my reach but for them they had to go through all that trouble just to complete their pasta and along the way I was able to enjoy my pasta too.
